Light House Studio
Share
Light House Studio equips youth to tell stories through filmmaking! Since then, we have helped youth create hundreds of documentary, drama, and animated films.
A group of local filmmakers, artists, and educators founded Light House Studio in 1999 with a small pilot workshop called "Video Diary." Our student work has been broadcast on PBS, CNN, and TNT. Light House films have been shown in festivals across the United States. Many of our students have received national awards for their films, including a Peabody Award, a Gold World Medal at the New York International TV and Film Festival and a Golden Cine Eagle Award.
